Memories Multi-App Strategy
Asurion help customers enhance their life through their technology every day. We offer mobile protection plans for various carriers such as Sprint, AT&T, Verizon, and other international carriers. When customers enroll in this mobile protection plan, this photo and video backup service will be included.
Asurion Memories is our version of the app. However, our team brands each carrier with an app name, logo, and primary color palette through our multi-tenancy portal. The rest of the app will not be configurable. This strategy enables us to launch new partners within days instead of months.
